By Hunter Shelton




QuoteBrian Kelly is putting together another elite recruiting class at LSU.

As of Dec. 12, LSU currently has 27 commitments in the 2024 cycle, 11 of whom are projected to play on the offensive side of the ball, while 15 are expected to play defense, leaving one pledge for the special teams unit.

The Tigers' class checks in as the No. 12 overall class in the nation and the No. 7 class in the SEC

Zachary four-star tight end Trey'Dez Green, Denham Springs (La.) four-star safety Dashawn McBryde and Beaumont (Texas) United four-star offensive tackle Weston Davis.

Three additional top-200 recruits are committed to Kelly and LSU: Duncanville (Texas) four-star running back Caden Durham, Many (La.) four-star linebacker Tylen Singleton and Houston Atascocita four-star wide receiver Jelani Watkins.

LSU lands Mississippi State WR Zavion Thomas out of transfer portal

By Alex Weber




QuoteFormer Mississippi State wide receiver Zavion Thomas has committed to LSU after entering the transfer portal following the 2023 season.

As a freshman, he ranked fifth nationally, second in the SEC, in punt return average with 13.5 yards per return along with one touchdown. He did not slow down in his sophomore season, again racing past opponents with impressive averages while scoring one touchdown off a kickoff return this time.

Thomas' real flourish in 2023 came as a wide receiver. He was no longer an exclusive special teamer and emerged as the second-leading pass catcher in a Bulldog offense that really struggled to move the ball through the air. Thomas wound up with 503 yards and one touchdown on 40 catches this season.

by: Hunter Shelton




QuoteMetairie (La.) St. Martin's Episcopal five-star running back Harlem Berry announced his pledge to the in-state Tigers at the Under Armour All-America Game in Orlando, adding another feather in the cap of LSU lead recruiter, Frank Wilson.

Wilson, a New Orleans native, has LSU rolling on the recruiting trail alongside Kelly and Co. Berry is now the latest example of an elite in-state recruit that has pledged after being made a primary focus by Wilson and the Tigers' staff.

"How did it happen? I think you just circle at the start — Frank Wilson, the running backs coach, head recruiter and certainly a guy who knows New Orleans like the back of his hand," LSU recruiting insider Shea Dixon said on The Inside Scoop. "A lot of other teams tried here, (Berry) went on a lot of other visits, but at the end of the day when the dust settled, everyone said 'hey, this is going to point in LSU's direction,' and here we are."

2025 4-star CB Jaboree Antoine visiting in-state LSU this weekend

by:
Hunter Shelton




QuoteOne of the best in The Boot will be in Baton Rouge this weekend.

New Iberia (La.) Westgate four-star cornerback Jaboree Antoine is set to help headline an important Junior Day weekend for LSU. The 6-foot-1, 170-pounder confirmed on Thursday that he will be on campus for his latest visit with the Tigers.

Antoine is one of the many prospects that new LSU defensive backs coach Corey Raymond will look to get in the fold in the 2025 cycle. Antoine made no bones about how fond he was of the hire when asked by The Bengal Tiger.

"Adding Corey Raymond to the staff is huge for LSU," Antoine told On3. "Like adding the icing on the cake!"

"Development is a top priority going into my decision," he said, "and Corey Raymond is a household name for development."

LSU had Antoine on campus in July and September last year.

Texas among those also in pursuit of Antoine
Antoine was in Austin last weekend on a Junior Day visit to Texas.

Antoine narrowed his list down to eight schools on Christmas. Alongside LSU and Texas are Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Michigan, Miami and Texas A&M. He is the No. 45 overall prospect and No. 7 CB in the 2025 cycle

On3 ranks Antoine much higher than other recruiting services.

LSU trending for major targets in 2025 recruiting class

by:
Collin Ginnan



QuoteLSU recruiting has been electric under head coach Brian Kelly. The Tigers finished with the nation's No. 7 recruiting class in the 2024 cycle, and 2025 is looking to be even better. Behind a staggering 11 commits, LSU currently ranks No. 1

A trio of five-star prospects lead the way in Belleville (Mich.) quarterback and No. 1 overall recruit Bryce Underwood, Duncanville (Texas) Five-Star Plus+ wide receiver Dakorien Moore and Metairie (La.) St Martin's Episcopal five-star running back Harlem Berry.

LSU recruiting insider Shea Dixon spoke about a handful of prospects for which LSU currently leads:

4-star IOL Micah DeBose
Mobile (Ala.) Vigor four-star interior offensive lineman Micah DeBose decommitted from Georgia in December and has since been heavily linked with both Auburn and LSU

"There is concern as much as LSU knows that's been the main competition," Dixon said about DeBose's recent Auburn visit. "On3 Director of Recruiting Chad Simmons moved his On3 RPM pick from Auburn to LSU during the February dead period, so it was evident that LSU started to really trend here.

"— LSU lands over the weekend Tyler Miller, the No. 1 interior offensive lineman in America. That gives LSU three o-line commits and now two top-100 OL commits with Devin Harper as well. Then you've got Brett Bordelon, an On3 Industry four-star on board. Brad Davis, the offensive line coach at LSU, is on fire cycle after cycle. With three commitments already on the o-line, what do you normally take? You usually take four or five. They went heavy last year and took six.

"The next guy up that everybody is Micah DeBose. Micah DeBose was at Auburn, he had planned out a number of visits. Then he tells On3 over the weekend following the Auburn visit, shaking things up — 'I'll be at LSU next weekend.' This came after Tyler Miller announced his commitment, so I almost get the sense that dominoes are dropping in Baton Rouge. It feels like a game of musical chairs of offensive linemen, and you definitely don't want to be the last one standing in that group. I feel like Micah DeBose now heads to town once again on commitment watch."

4-star RB James Simon
Shreveport (La.) Calvary Baptist Academy four-star running back James Simon ranks No. 103 overall in the 2025

"I think a lot of out-of-state schools have made an impression on him. Texas A&M has been on him heavily, Texas has tried to be on him heavily. Even Georgia, Alabama, Florida — all of these schools have hosted him at different points. He's taken his time to really look around at all options.

"That being said, LSU has locked down Louisiana this cycle. ..."
